A MONSTROUS asteroid taller than the Leaning Tower Pisa will zip past the Earth tomorrow afternoon, NASA has revealed.

The asteroid, dubbed by NASA Asteroid 2019 AR2, will make a so-called “Earth Close Approach”. Asteroid trajectory calculations predict the space rock will reach its closest distance to Earth tomorrow afternoon. NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) expects Asteroid AR2 will swing by around 2.28pm on Sunday, January 13. The unexpected flyby comes just 10 days after the barreling space rock was first detected by NASA’s radars on January 3.

NASA expects the imposing asteroid to narrowly miss the Earth on the morning of Wednesday, March 20. The asteroid, dubbed Asteroid 2019 CD5, is hurtling towards Earth on a so-called “Earth Close Approach” trajectory. NASA’s astronomers at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL)

Asteroid Bennu is of particular interest to NASA as it attempts to understand the potential threat it poses to Earth. The imposing asteroid is currently hurtling through the void of space some 70 million miles (110km) from Earth. Yet despite the enormous distances involved, the US space agency

The “Worm Moon”, named after folklore which claims earthworms appears when frost melts, will appear on the first day of spring. NASA revealed Asteroid 2019EA2 will fly past Earth at the same time - and will be closer to the world than the moon. The two events appearing within 24
